The forgotten hero

prologue

Hera sighed, it has been 4 months since Posiden started to disappear, and she had a sneaking suspicion that he had broken his oath. She concentrated and poofed herself into a neighborhood in Italy. The house in front of her was stucco covered, and she could hear her brother's voice inside it. "Maria, my darling, if my family find out that I have broken my oath they will kill you and the child.'' So he did break it, the fool. Poseidon walked out of the house and startled at the sight of Hera waiting outside. "Hera! What a...surprise!"

"Brother, did you break the oath?"

"N-no - yes I did."

"Well then brother, unless you want me to tattle to Zeus, you'd better let me be the child's godparent." Poseidon gaped, probably because of the forceful request.

"Fine, you can have her as your godchild." Poseidon said.

"Her! Poseidon, darling, I'm surprised! I shall call her Andromeda."

Poseidon snorted. "Named after the girl I tried to kill?" He was speaking to thin air; Hera had disappeared.

Andromeda Agosti - or Ann as she preferred - was running away. She packed everything she needed: clothes, books, and enough

cioccolata calda in a thermos to last her a whole day. Ann had been in her room when her mother came in "listen, amoruccio,you need to go, you stayed too long in one place." Just then wheels screeched , its windows rolled down to show a dark haired woman with a peacock feather necklace. "Hello Andromeda, I've been ~eXpEcTiNg yOu~ come, hop into my car dear goddaughter." Ann nodded, there was something about that woman that was intimidating but Anne felt herself being drawn towards her.

Ann got off a ship to America, she was carrying a hair clip that the lady gave her as a present and a compass 'to help her on her way' as the lady said. The compass moved toward the outskirts of New york. Confused, Ann followed it to a small patch of wilderness, where it crumpled into dust. Her fingers accidentally pressed against the end of her hair clip making it transform into a glowing xiphos.
